1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Uterine transplantation restores fertility in women with absolute uterine factor infertility and allows the opportunity to conceive, experience gestation, and acquire motherhood. The number of cases being performed is increasing dramatically, with detailed outcomes from 65 cases now available. Pregnancies achieved through uterus transplantation and following in vitro fertilization (IVF) are associated with an increased risk for further mother and newborn babies. This traditional review is focused on the safety and efficacy features of the treatment. However, it is associated with significant risk, with approximately one-quarter of grafts are removed because of complications. Uterine transplantation is realizable in women with uterine factor infertility but is associated with a significant complication risk. The risk of the procedure and gestational and delivery complications deserve important consideration before receiving such treatments. Nevertheless, these observations are preliminary and should be revised after a larger series of data are published.
